First of all, thank you for this day. Even though it's over 600km from Rome, it was worth every effort. Seeing Pompeii is a highlight. Superbly preserved, you get a wonderful insight into Roman life. Via Appia Antica is an orphan compared to the roads here. The paintings are also very well preserved. The funniest thing we found was the 90 fast food stations for local residents. At first we were worried that we would only see a small corner in the two hours. But our local guide had a great route and we were able to see a lot. Vesuvius was much more stressful afterwards. You are chased up the mountain on a full stomach and have to be back down at a certain time. I can say one thing. We're not the least fit, but it was close. We were two minutes late. One criticism in passing. The restaurant for the toilet break is outrageously overpriced. From time to time the trip feels like a coffee run. But let's put that to one side, you can decide against it and not buy anything. The day was great and we would book it again and again.

Very attentive guide. Enrico was charismatic and spoke Spanish easily. The company was on time and the bus was comfortable. The guide in Pompeii was also attentive and very informative.

Very nice and knowledgeable guide Francesca, she was very helpful and everything went according to the plan. Pompeii are an absolute must see, a little too far from Rome but still manageable

Everything was exceptional - tour leader, tour guide, driver, lunch, but I was really disapointed in only panoramic tour of Naples because that wasn't mentioned. I asumed it would be at least a short walk through the city, as it was stated on the website that we can 'enjoy shops and restaurants'.

I want to thank the guide Marcelo, an excellent treatment and the driver Emiliano, as well as the rest of the team, a great professionalism of all of them. The organization was perfect, very happy. Next year my parents will go and they will do the excursion with you. A big hug and thank you very much for everything.
